Doesn't the Congress feel somewhat insulted That it wasn't consulted by His Majesty's team? Obama wants credit for every achievement On his way to fulfilling every GOP dream. Who signed into law Baucus healthcare reform That GOP blackmailers swear they'll repeal In state after state till it reaches Scalia Who Las Vegas is betting will kill it piecemeal? At least they've spared Scalia the need to reject Public options designed to compete with Blue Cross And other insurers like Aetna and Cigna Who'll pay off Scalia, McConnell's straw boss. But look who's intent on conceding to Mitch If they'll put his name on the bill to extend Bushie's tax cuts for mega-rich donors. That's what former supporters still don't comprehend. Who knew personal glory meant more to Obama Than the reelection, the next time around, Of self-serving Blue Dogs and New Democrats Who'll make sure his memoirs won't be leather-bound?
